Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

jxt - JSON/XML Translation for the Browser

What is this?

A basic framework for translating XML to dev-friendly JSON and back again, and can be used both in the browser and in node.

Installing

$ npm install jxt

How to use it

First, we define the mapping between our XML and desired JSON:

// Create a registry instance that will track our definitions and
// extensions.
var jxt = require('jxt').createRegistry();
var helpers = jxt.utils;

var Message = jxt.define({
    name: 'message',
    namespace: 'jabber:client',
    element: 'message',
    fields: {
        to: helpers.attribute('to'),
        from: helpers.attribute('from'),
        subject: helpers.textSub('jabber:client', 'subject'),
        body: helpers.textSub('jabber:client', 'body')
    }
});

Now, we can create Message objects, and set fields and treat it just like JSON, and it will map it to XML.

var msg = new Message();
msg.to = '[email protected]';
msg.body = 'giving a demo of jxt';

console.log(msg.toJSON());
console.log(msg.toString());

// {to: '[email protected]', body: 'giving a demo of jxt'}
// <message xmlns="jabber:client" to="[email protected]"><body>giving a demo of jxt</body></message>

Mappings can be extended:

// jxt is our registry object

var Ext = jxt.define({
    name: 'demoExt',
    namespace: 'jxt',
    element: 'demo',
    fields: {
        text: jxt.text()
    }
});

jxt.extend(Message, Ext);

var msg = new Message();
msg.demoExt.text = 'an extension';

console.log(msg.toJSON());
console.log(msg.toString());
// {demoExt: {text: 'an extension'}}
// <message xmlns="jabber:client"><demo xmlns="jxt">an extension</demo></message>
